SHS 290x290x10 V&M do Brasil · Weight & Dimensions

V&M do Brasil, hot-rolled sections · Square Hollow Section

Square Hollow Sections (SHS) are tubular profiles with equal sides, ideal for columns and compression members due to their uniform buckling resistance in all directions.

Also known as: PTR 290x290 (México) · Caño estructural 290x290 (Argentina)

The SHS 290x290x10 steel profile weighs 85.9 kg/m (57.72 lb/ft), has a depth of 290 mm (11.42 in), flange width 290 mm (11.42 in). Cross-sectional area: 10,942.478 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 14,126.069 cm⁴, Iy = 14,126.069 cm⁴.
